    >I can think of one fix: remove the GD!

    I wonder if that helps. Why do you think it would help? Assume there would be no GD, in my opinion the newbies who get here go to the other boards and keep asking the same questions.

    Show me a board that doesn't have a GD forum.

    You can't.

    An all-work-and-no-play-forum makes a dull programmer
    even duller.
    No. Wait. Don't hang up!

    This is America calling!

    I think school plays a role. I posted a lot more during the summer when I didn't have school. Also, I think a lot of the older members like to bash / flame the younger members like me and face_master. They need to get rid of their monster ego.

    face_master gets flamed because he's very flameable. He seems to get a kick out of it, which is cool, because I enjoy flaming him.

    You, on the other hand just ........ and moan when you don't get your way and continue to break the rules again and again after having been warned multiple times... The translation of this is "don't be too surprised if you can't sign on anymore in a few days".

    I noticed that alot of members just ake up space, i mean, half
    of the members have post counts of 2 or less. Thats just taking
    up member names.

    And i think alot of new members are repelled from this board
    because of its strict rules, like asking for text color you get

    "this has been asked before, use the search"

    And hup, a lock on it.
    Maybe whe should allow a little more flexibility or then again
    maybe not.

    Stupid and immature posts receive stupid and immature replies from most people. There's two ways to solve that.

    1) Get used to it

    2) Grow up
    Wandering aimlessly through C.....

    Well, that's a cryin' shame. The text color's in the FAQ, which all new members are supposed to read before posting.

    I din't read that anywhere, ofcourse if you're smart you do so,
    but you might just want to bash the FAQ in the users face.
